About the Item
Jordi Díez Fernández graduated from the Universidad Complutense de Madrid with a degree in Fine Art and honours in sculpture. He started his professional career collaborating with other sculptors on a variety of public projects as well as his own public and private enterprises.
Works which were conceived and created during this early stage of his career include the monumental Albox marble sculpture, Leda, located in Majadahonda (Madrid) and Esclavo, made from Colmenar stone, currently part of a private collection in Barcelona.
The artist went on to open his own studio in an old factory in Barcelona’s Poblenou neighbourhood, famous for its art scene. During this time, he worked on numerous sculptures including Centro de Fuerza, which can be found in the ski resort of La Masella, Girona, and Hombre-Mujer León, which is currently part of a private collection. The artist subsequently established his studio in Centelles (Barcelona), where he continues to work today.
Through his work, the artist aims to build a bridge between current art forms and its predecessors. His work encompasses a broad spectrum of themes ranging from religious art, such as the stone sculpture, St.Hipòlit, commissioned for the main facade of the St. Hipòlit de Voltregá parish church in Barcelona, wooden images of Christ, and a large terracotta relief created for the front of the St.Vicenç de Castellet Church (Barcelona) to large wooden sculptures such as Caballo, Cabeza and Dos, or large scale, iron works such as Cuerpas. He has also worked on specific commissions for social projects, such as Las Meninas (2005), for the exhibition “Barroco: teoría, contemplación, experiencia”, located in the Cuartel Conde Duque de Madrid and “La carga de los Mamelucos” (2008), for the exhibition “Proclamas y bandos de 1808”, housed in the old Post Office building in Madrid.
In recent years, he has developed a technique using stainless steel electro-welding elements, which have given an unmistakable style to his work. This highly expressive form of figurative art uses modern technology, establishing a defined balance between old and new. This series encompasses a number of works housed in private collections as well as the public works Llindar, Mercurio and Torso. It also includes Los amantes de acero and Rosal Monumental, found in architecturally important locations in Centelles (Barcelona); the Ildefons Cerdá sculpture commissioned by the Barcelona Council in 2010 for the 150th anniversary of the Eixample plan; and the sculpture of a Loewe bag permanently on display in the window of the flagship shop in Gran Vía, Madrid.
Jordi Díez Fernández is currently working on a sculpture of Mr. Lee Kuan Yew, the Father of Singapore, and a Vesak Buddha piece for Thailand.

- White SwanBy Rainer LagemannLocated in Miami, FLBorn in Düsseldorf in 1959, Rainer Lagemann concentrates on the human body in a modern interpretation of classical sculpture. Lagemann is fascinated by the long-held tradition of artistic expression and struggle depicted through the natural form explored in all shapes, materials, and mediums since the beginning of art history. His sculptures capture the human body in motion--a freeze-frame of classic, timeless gestures and emotions, both ethereal and concrete. The forms he creates possess the grace of a Nureyev or Baryshnikov in mid-flight. Lagemann uses hollow metal squares to sculpt the human figure, creating works that elicit both the strength and delicacy of the body. Each square represents the trials and tribulations of life, the four corners symbolizing the intellectual, emotional, physical, and spiritual dimensions of human beings that form the framework of the spirit and the image of the body. The hollow squares strip away distractions, leaving a powerful vision and exploration of the human body, adding an element of tangible levity and formless abstraction. With all of Rainer's sculptures, there is a secondary layer of beauty and mystery - the exquisite shadows of form, body, and spirit cast themselves upon the walls creating a second sculpture of light...Category
